Description

"Text," "writings," "book"-whether of stone or papyrus-are cultural objects whose definitions, often implicit, vary across time and space. Their articulation reveals distinct regimes of writing, where the notions of "author," "work," and "scribe" take on particular meanings; historicising these notions opens new perspectives on the meaning of texts and on their world of production and reception. This volume presents the pathways collectively pursued to grasp the culture of writing and the dynamics of Egyptian scriptural practices within the framework of the Ecritures programme (Ifao, Sorbonne University), dedicated to the archaeology and anthropology of writing practices in Egypt. The book includes contributions from two workshops, held in 2019 and 2021, which focused on the visual form of texts through the concept of graphic register, as well as on the semantic and pragmatic implications of their spatial arrangements. Reflecting on the powers of writing and the non-verbal elements that also contribute to a text's meaning, the twenty contributions in this volume paint a broad picture of writing, constantly reconfigured-whether cursive or hieroglyphic, concealed or displayed-across manuscripts, tombs, and funerary material. Examining the ways in which written products are adapted in their material manifestations, these contributions propose concepts such as graphic register, scriptural space, and spatial grammar, and explore case studies-from stone manuscripts to the circulation of texts in funerary contexts and the parietal display of cursive writing-that contribute to an approach to writing in ancient Egypt and beyond, which fully considers its material, anthropological, and social dimensions.
